The Technology Letter's Tiernan Ray says investors are finally taking profits on AI memory stocks like Micron (MU), SanDisk (SNDK), Western Digital (WDC), and Seagate (STX) among others after parabolic runs. He doesn't believe the trading action is problematic and instead sees investors rebalancing portfolios to find the next big tech trade. Tiernan then outlines his expectations on Qualcomm's (QCOM) upcoming investor day and Nvidia's (NVDA) shareholder meeting. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about
Ivan Feinseth talks about stocks he sees as foundational AI companies, including Qualcomm (QCOM), which he expects to play a much larger role in "on-device" AI. He calls Nvidia (NVDA) the "must own" company as it remains in the epicenter of the AI trade and carries substantial market momentum. Ivan also makes the case for Intel (INTC) as builds up its rebound story. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Ce matin, un seul chiffre compte : le CPI d'avril sort à 14h30. Le consensus attend 3.8% en glissement annuel, contre 3.3% en mars. Porté par l'énergie, porté par le pétrole, porté par un détroit d'Ormuz qui reste quasi-fermé malgré les négociations. Trump a qualifié hier le cessez-le-feu d'"unbelievably weak." Le Brent repasse vers 100 dollars.Dans ce Morning Mood, on décrypte pourquoi ce CPI n'est pas un chiffre comme les autres, ce que le sommet Trump-Xi à Pékin dans 48h peut changer pour les semi-conducteurs et les terres rares, et pourquoi Qualcomm s'envole pendant que le reste hésite.Les marchés sont à un carrefour. Le brief du matin pour ne pas improviser quand ça bouge.Bonne écoute. xavier Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.
This week: four hyperscalers reported earnings on the same day, NVIDIA briefly crossed $5 trillion in market cap, OpenAI broke Azure exclusivity, and Google put $40 billion into Anthropic. Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman call it the most consequential week in AI infrastructure history and suggest the bull thesis just got its vote of confidence. The handpicked topics for this week are: OpenAI Breaks Azure Exclusivity — Both Patrick and Daniel were in the room for the original OpenAI-Microsoft announcement, and they both knew it wasn't the end of the story, it was just the beginning. The restructured deal keeps Microsoft on IP rights through 2032 and a guaranteed 20% revenue share through 2030, but the AGI trigger clause that would have ended payments is gone. The very next day OpenAI went live on AWS, the first non-Microsoft hyperscaler to carry it. Dan's read: model companies need more compute than any one hyperscaler can offer, and every hyperscaler needs access to all the models. Nobody wins with exclusivity anymore. (The Decode) Google Puts $40 Billion Into Anthropic — Pat spells it out: Anthropic just became AI's first joint custody child, with Amazon and Google as the parents and a $73 billion college fund. Google, which already had stakes in Anthropic and SpaceX, posted a $37 billion investment gain in a single quarter solely from valuation improvements, and now holds dual hyperscaler structural backing for Anthropic that Pat says OpenAI simply can't match. Daniel's thesis lands again: models are not the moat. Compute is the moat. Everybody is figuring that out now. (The Decode) The CPU War Is On: Meta Goes to AWS for Graviton — Meta recently secured a multi-year, multi-billion dollar Graviton agreement with AWS after being caught off-guard regarding both compute resources and models. Andy Jassy noted that demand was so high he had to decline two customers who sought to purchase his "entire Graviton capacity." During his victory lap, Pat highlighted a significant shift in agentic workloads: the CPU-to-GPU ratio has plummeted from 16-to-1 to nearly 2-to-1, with some cases already reaching 1-to-1 parity. The CPU war is the story nobody saw coming fast enough, including AMD and Intel. (The Decode) OpenAI 5.5 Review: Shows Promise, But Not Amazing — Daniel tested the new model and shared his take: not blown away but not unhappy either. Pat moved some workloads back to test it and liked what he found, particularly on research. The 38% reduction in reasoning-intensive tasks is the ROI answer OpenAI has right now. But both hosts flag the bigger question: What happens when token subsidies end and real agentic workflow costs hit the tape? That is the moment that opens the door for open source, small models, and enterprise-specific deployments. The model moat, Dan says for the third time this episode, "just does not exist anymore." (The Decode) China AI and the Open Source Question — Daniel went long on this in a live CNBC stream and brings the sharpest take to the show: serious US companies are not going to scale their products on Chinese models. He predicts it will play out like TikTok, regionally distributed to markets with lower concern about data sovereignty. Pat's hedge: open source is a legitimate pressure valve on frontier model pricing, but only if Chinese labs aren't stealing IP to get there. If the frontier model companies stop investing because there's no money in it, the whole ecosystem loses. NVIDIA has the clearest opportunity to step in and fill the open source gap without competing with its own customers. (The Decode) The Flip: Is $700 Billion in Hyperscale AI CapEx Delivering Returns Fast Enough? Daniel took the pro stance: Google Cloud at 63% growth, $460 billion in backlog, quarter-over-quarter doubling. Azure at 40%, AWS at 28% fastest growth in 15 quarters. Meta at 33%, fastest growth since 2021, generating $32 billion in operating cash flow in a single quarter. Only 20% of enterprises are using AI and only 2% of consumers. Pat's counter: Microsoft is down 12% year to date despite beating estimates. ServiceNow off 14% after a beat and raise. The market is completely skeptical, and $700 billion in CapEx so Anthropic and OpenAI can crank out $100 billion in revenue is not yet a clean return story. Both hosts admit they agreed on more than they let on. The real question isn't whether companies are spending too much, it might actually be whether they're spending enough. (The Flip) Fed Holds, 8-4 Vote — In a macro look at the markets, hosts report that the Fed held rates steady, with the most dissents since October 1992. Pat's read: it means nothing for the tech trade right now but is a re-rating of the discount rate long term. Daniel thinks cuts are still coming because housing is stalled and nothing else moves the broader economy without it. Confirmation of the new Fed chair is something to watch. (Bulls and Bears) NVIDIA Crosses $5 Trillion — Daniel called it, and it happened faster than he thought was realistic, just like $2, $3, and $4 trillion before it. A $5 trillion market cap is a market verdict on supply constraint and demand visibility. His position remains: every estimate of the AI market between now and 2030 is too low because nobody has the gall to estimate what exponential scale actually looks like. (Bulls and Bears) Microsoft, AWS, and Google Cloud Earnings — The cloud race is heating up with Google Cloud leading at 63% growth, while Azure hit 40% and AWS saw its fastest expansion in 15 quarters at 28%. Pat points to Microsoft's massive 700,000-seat Copilot deal with Accenture as a key indicator of its enterprise advantage, noting that businesses prefer established partners over direct labs for AI. Daniel highlights a clear market shift: Google's demonstrated ROI earned investor rewards, whereas Meta faced pushback for increasing CapEx without a defined enterprise revenue stream. In this "hard ROI era," strategic capital allocation is making all the difference. (Bulls and Bears) Samsung, Apple, and Qualcomm — Samsung has transitioned from facing negative gross margins to becoming a premier global profit leader. In Pat's view, this surge represents a long-awaited correction following years of intense pricing pressure. SK Hynix and Micron are similar beneficiaries and Daniel has been pounding the table on Micron for a reason. Apple beat solidly everywhere, proved the iPhone 17 cycle is real, blew up the China headwind argument, and grew services to an all-time high at $31 billion. The episode closes on a high note with Qualcomm hitting a major milestone: a hyperscaler is now leveraging their AI silicon, with material impact expected in 2027. As Pat noted in his summary tweet, the short sellers are definitely feeling the heat right now. (Bulls and Bears) Want the full breakdown? Be a part of our community.

Kevin Green kicks off Thursday's market coverage with his eyes on the weakness in tech and comm. services on the heels of Alphabet (GOOGL) earnings. He says the ripple effects could impact other names, adding $170 "has to hold" for Nvidia (NVDA). For GOOGL, he says the re-rated "aggressively higher" capex spend was up sharply from market expectations, as Google Deepmind and its AI capabilities continue to spend heavily. KG also examines Qualcomm's (QCOM) downward post-earnings move and Bitcoin's (/BTC) continued fall so far this month. For the S&P 500 (SPX), KG says "keep your head on a swivel" while he projects a wide range today with 6750 to the downside and 6930 to the upside.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

This episode argues that today's AI exuberance fits a familiar pattern: bubbles misallocate capital on the way up but leave behind productive infrastructure that powers the next S-curve. We revisit the “boom-bust-build-out” cycle and apply it to compute and the grid, note why “good enough” AI latency could flip capex behavior, and push back on modeling everything in gigawatts—useful for planning, risky for strategy. On companies: ARM's quarter was solid, with rising royalties/CSS stickiness and a strongly implied first-party chip effort complemented by the DreamBig memory-controller acquisition to improve AI-era CPU roles. Qualcomm benefits from a higher-ASP Android cycle, nurtures auto/smart-glasses adjacencies, and eyes DC inference. On supply: Elon hedges silicon with foundry allocations while fab-building talk reads as negotiating leverage; memory/storage stay tight with longer contracts and measured adds. Net: optimism about what survives the eventual correction, caution on GW-only thinking, and watchpoints around ARM's vertical creep, Qualcomm's DC push, and supply-chain discipline.
George Tsilis tackles Thursday morning's earnings slate starting with Qualcomm (QCOM), which traded down after it showed pressure on margins. The pressure wasn't as strong as it was against CarMax (KMX), which hit 52-week lows after its CEO said he would step down as the company's sales lag. As for Fortinet (FTNT), George notes the sell-off following its earnings.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Qualcomm (QCOM) faced pressure post-earnings. Some of that downside action is attributed to the company's pivot from Apple (AAPL), argues Jim Kelleher. Qualcomm's loss of the Mag 7 giant's modem business is something he expects to add long-term concerns. Ben Bajarin says the company has new potential through data centers, a strong point he and Jim both see in Qualcomm's earnings. Ben explains how the company can capitalize on growing A.I. needs.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.
